Images	Banksy's Elephant	By the second day of Banksy's “Barely Legal” exhibition in Los Angeles in 2006, many animal rights activists were registering their displeasure. Banksy was displaying an eight-thousand-pound elephant named Tai, whose hide he had painted red and embellished with gold fleurs-de-lis, to match the wallpaper of a parlor he had constructed. (The elephant in the room, a handout proclaimed, was global poverty.) The activists said that the paint was toxic. Ed Boks, Los Angeles’s general manager of animal services, said he regretted that his office had issued a permit and, after visiting the show, wrote on his blog that looking into the elephant’s eyes “nearly brought me to tears.” He eventually ordered the animal hosed down.	root	23
